A discovery of silver that was reported to have been extremely rich became discovered with the minr association of Copper, and Galena. This whole entire discovery was reported to have been made on Lot 19, within the second Concession of Paipoonage Township, Ontario, Canada. It was rather located 11 miles from Fort William, and 16 miles west of Part Arthur. Much of this discovery was made in 1890, by a prospector known as Henry Parson, and was sold to Mr. John Woodside. and one half to Mr. W. J Barry in 1891. Further explorations of this property had soon discovered four distinct veins that were uncovered, and had also shown valuable minerals for a distance of 200 yards. It was rather reported that much of this discovery was found in a formation of quartz, and slate that out crops on the surface.

It was in 1892, when the prospectors had opened up two veins for a distance of 50 rods on the property. There was also two veins that were 300 feet apart from each other to the far east. The two prospectors would trace the North vein to the west, and the South Vein to the north of the west side. Much of the first discovery within this property had been made on the two other veins that were uncovered. Further explorations continued when a shaft was sunk to the west of these discoveries on the South Vein. At the time it was reported that the shaft was only sunken to a depth 25 feet, and had shown the vein in between the well defined walls. Further assaying of this vein had soon indicated it to contain $7,000 in silver per a tonne of ore mined. There was also another shaft which was sunken 200 feet east of the No. 1 shaft on the same vein Most of this sinking phase had only reach a depth of 9 feet after going through 5 feet of clay before reaching rock that consisted of quartz, and spar. By this time the two prospectors had discovered this vein be six feet in width after passing the clay formation.

Another shaft known as the North shaft was sunken to the depth of 30 feet on the main vein zone or the North Vein. It had so far outlined that the vein had its own width of 10 feet but was not determined to its full extent in 1892. Mining operations at this site became ceased do to improper financing at the time of 1883.
